Hi dear,
Good day. Your blood levels of TSH indicates that you are still hypothyroid. Are you taking Thyroorm 50 mg daily on empty stomach. If yes, then you should increase the dose. Yes, your symptoms could be due to hypothyroidism. The knee pain is probably related to your excess body weight. Please consult your endocrinologist/physician to adjust the dose.
